Description

Mimic is a compact speech synthesis engine developed as part of the Mycroft project, based on Flite, and largely compatible with it from the command line interface.

An issue already exist at Mycroft to add speech-dispatcher support for Mimic, but it doesn't seem to have been worked on. I thought it would be at least beneficial to raise it here for mutual awareness.
